Billboard album reviews (Reuters)Reuters - People like Bon Jovi for its power-chord-laden songs and
Jon Bon Jovi's gravelly vocals. But the frontman has been
touting "Have a Nice Day" as a new direction, one that is more
introspective and socially conscious. The group's songwriting
has gotten better over the years, and there are some seriously
catchy tunes here ("Last Cigarette," "Welcome to Wherever You
Are"). But the lyrics often fall short, even when it is obvious
the band is gunning for a hit ("Bells of Freedom"). These
shortfalls certainly will not get Jon any closer to being
considered Bruce Springsteen's equal, and this album is not
likely to provide a huge U.S. comeback for the band. However,
"Nice Day" is full of solid rock'n'roll, ensuring Bon Jovi will
be around to enjoy yet another decade.

Billboard single reviews (Reuters)Reuters - Breathe in. Chris Martin's dreamy,
shut-eyed vocals are engulfed by sublime waves of organ and
piano, while the band takes a break. Breathe out. "Fix You"
from Coldplay's "X&Y" -- still atop the Billboard Eurocharts
albums list after 13 weeks -- is a quiet ballad with a
tenacious melody and deeply human feel. The song begins as a
sonic yoga session and builds with each verse, softly
stretching to reach catharsis. When a hypnotic, single-note
guitar explodes the meditation into full-on stadium gospel, we
start believing Coldplay could really be the next U2. However,
Martin's Prozac prose ("Lights will guide you home/ And ignite
your bones/ And I will fix you") is almost too soothing to
provide real comfort.
